Answer:

0.175 m/s²

Explanation:

Given:

v₀ = 35 m/s

v = 42 m/s

t = 40 s

Find: a

v = at + v₀

42 m/s = a (40 s) + 35 m/s

a = 0.175 m/s²

A box rests on top of a flat bed truck. The box has a mass of m = 16.0 kg. The coefficient of static friction between the box an
3241004551 [841]

Answer:

1) 1.31 m/s2

2) 20.92 N

3) 8.53 m/s2

4) 1.76 m/s2

5) -8.53 m/s2

Explanation:

1) As the box does not slide, the acceleration of the box (relative to ground) is the same as acceleration of the truck, which goes from 0 to 17m/s in 13 s

a = \frac{\Delta v}{\Delta t} = \frac{17 - 0}{13} = 1.31 m/s2

2)According to Newton 2nd law, the static frictional force that acting on the box (so it goes along with the truck), is the product of its mass and acceleration

F_s = am = 1.31*16 = 20.92 N

3) Let g = 9.81 m/s2. The maximum static friction that can hold the box is the product of its static coefficient and the normal force.

F_{\mu_s} = \mu_sN = mg\mu_s = 16*9.81*0.87 = 136.6N

So the maximum acceleration on the block is

a_{max} = F_{\mu_s} / m = 136.6 / 16 = 8.53 m/s^2

4)As the box slides, it is now subjected to kinetic friction, which is

F_{\mu_s} = mg\mu_k = 16*9.81*0.69 = 108.3 N

So if the acceleration of the truck it at the point where the box starts to slide, the force that acting on it must be at 136.6 N too. So the horizontal net force would be 136.6 - 108.3 = 28.25N. And the acceleration is

28.25 / 16 = 1.76 m/s2

5) Same as number 3), the maximum deceleration the truck can have without the box sliding is -8.53 m/s2

What is the magnitude of the applied electric field inside an aluminum wire of radius 1.2 mm that carries a 3.0-a current? [ σal
galben [10]
Hello

1) First of all, since we know the radius of the wire (r=1.2~mm=0.0012~m), we can calculate its cross-sectional area
A=\pi r^2 = 3.14 \cdot (0.0012~m)^2=4.5\cdot10^{-6}~m^2

2)  Then, we can calculate the current density J inside the wire. Since we know the current, I=3~A, and the area calculated at the previous step, we have
J= \frac{I}{A}= \frac{3~A}{4.5\cdot10^{-6}~m^2} = 6.63\cdot10^5 ~A/m^2

3) Finally, we can calculate the electric field E applied to the wire. Given the conductivity \sigma=3.6\cdot10^7~ \frac{A}{Vm} of the aluminium, the electric field is given by
E= \frac{J}{\sigma}= \frac{ 6.63\cdot10^5 ~A/m^2}{3.6\cdot10^7~ \frac{A}{Vm} } = 0.018~V/m
